Title : Aggressive Brakes with Air Brake Foot Valve Leak on Bus
Applies To : CE200, CE300, FE300, RE200 and RE300 with Option Code 04WEA - Parking
Brake Interlock - With Air Brakes Only

CHANGE LOG
Please refer to the change log text box below for recent changes to this article:
11/05/2018 - Updated Symptoms and diagnostic information


DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with Feature code 04WEA Park Brake Interlock require the key to be on and the brake pedal to be depressed to
release the parking brake. To accomplish this there is additional (see Figure 1) air line routing and valving added to the base system
(See Figure 2). When the brake is applied air is routed from the foot valve through a double check valve to an ignition controlled
solenoid valve through another double check valve and to the control inputs on an SV-1 valve for the primary and the secondary air
systems. The control air in the SV-1 valve opens the supply port to the delivery port and sends air to the park brake valve. Once the
park brake is released there is air feed through the second double check valve to the SV-1 to provide air to hold the park brake in the
released position.

SYMPTOM(s)
An air leak at the foot valve can be cause by a leaking double check valve in the 04WEA control circuit. This will back-feed air into the
delivery port on the foot valve and will be exhausted out the exhaust port on the foot valve at key on with the parking brake released
and the brake pedal not depressed.
It is also possible for back-feeding air to cause the brakes to become touchy or grabby during a light brake application. This is due
to the fact that the exhaust port on the foot valve is closed off once the brake pedal is applied and the back-feeding air now is trapped
between the foot valve and the brake chambers. There is also the normal application air being added to the delivery circuit based on
the amount of travel on the brake pedal. The back-feeding air and the normal application air has a compounding effect and creates a
greater than desired braking force.
Note: At times it is possible to get the double check valve to seat by having a full service brake application.
